if its an oldish corsa b with injection then the fuel lines have probly started to perish, there the black ones that go into the injector rail, theres 2, ones the return, it stinks of fuel as the heater sucks in from behind there so that's why it smells so bad, check when car is running so the fuel pumps pumping, find where its coming from and get it replaced.
